Yoga is essentially a spiritual discipline based on an extremely subtle science, which focuses on bringing harmony between mind and body. It is an art and science of healthy living. The word ‘Yoga’ is derived from the Sanskrit root ‘Yuj’, meaning ‘to join’ or ‘to yoke’ or ‘to unite’. As per Yogic scriptures, the practice of Yoga leads to the union of individual consciousness with that of the Universal Consciousness, indicating a perfect harmony between the mind and body, Man & Nature.
It has been practicing over 4000 years throughout the world. Yoga is a very useful method for reducing mental health and live a pure healthy life. Yoga is connected with mental health. A number of people are dealing with mental health issues and can't find a way to be happy by themselves and that's where Yoga helps.

Researchers suspect that yoga reduces stress by interfering with the central nervous system's ability to release stress hormones. Study shows that meditation-focused types of yoga, like yoga asana, boost levels of feel-good hormones like oxytocin in the brain.
